The boxers were best when sub 800cc, as BMW increases size to keep up in the size and HP wars, IMHO they exceeded the proper operational window. The pressure in the crank is so high sometimes from the two huge Pistons moving back and forth will blow out the oil sight window!
I have been blessed with the money to buy anything I want, and it is not the junk BMW produces now. Instead I rebuilt and upgraded my 1990 K75RT myself and bought a 2013 CB 1100 and liked it so much I went out and bought the 2014 CB 1100 DLX.
If tall you may have to lower the pegs, and install a taller seat. I'm 5'8" and I lowered the pegs due to my arthritic knees.
